IRAN - Iran’s military head said Saturday that forces are preparing to “annihilate” Israel’s Zionist regime within 25 years after recent threats between the foes. The threat from Commander of Iran’s Army Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi comes while tension has escalated with an Israeli strike on an Iranian base in Syria earlier this month. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired back at Salami on Friday. “We hear the threats from Iran. IDF fighters and the security branches are ready for any development. We will fight anyone who tries to harm us… We will not be deterred by the price and we will exact a price from those who seek our souls. The IDF is ready for its mission and the nation will stand,” he added.
